Ditto. Bringing kids on the show just makes it more serious....period. You can't snark on kids and I remember the nightmare that was daring to say a word against the sainted Emily. Somehow logical criticism and snark goes out the window. I know single parents deserve love too, but I don't think this show is the best way to go about finding it. It almost makes me long for the days of Ben "The Storm Horse" and his skinny dipping partner in crime Courtney.

Yuck! Please, no! I couldn't stand Ben and he was ugly to me.

I don't buy that the others need the show to even date! Why not just have Bachelor Pad then?

True. I did not find him in any way attractive on Ashley's season or on his own. You can't however deny that he was a feast for snarking...and I did specify....almost.

Ha! Just goes to show how taste differs. I think Storm Horse was a brilliant spoof and Ben is a very creative man. Apparently Jennifer LOve Hewitt and Kris Jenner don't find him so ugly.

 While I do think Ben is creative, I would not call Storm Horse a brillian spoof...more like juvenile self indulgence...and every pot has it's lid. Ben has shown himself to be a good business man promoting his wines and I suspect that is the interest in Kris Jenner. He would be an idiot to get himself involved otherwise.

Back to Rene. I personally have not really got a feel for her yet. I am waiting to see her on my screen. I could love her but even if I do, I still don't want another parent on this show as the lead.

I know it is still early in the process...they haven't even finished filming...but didn't we have more stuff about Sean's girls, Des's guys...the last few seasons than we have about the contestants this season?

The show had the bio's of Sean's ladies while filming was still going on.

I don't mean just the bio's atem. I was thinking more personal stuff. Old pics, tweets, sleuthing type stuff. Just doesn't seem the same level of interest this season. Am I imagining that or are we still too early in the process?

Oh! I didn't watch or sleuth Sean's season as I didn't watch Brad's or Emily's and didn't have any attachment to Sean.

There were some family members and friends that posted for Desiree's season. I think it's too early to say what the interest will be in sleuthing will be this time.

The show is losing steam and people's interest. Thus some of the cheesy tweets by production and the cheesy photo of JP with the jack o'lantern ad. This may be the first season I pass on watching if there is something else on.

When does Renee have her one on one? Seems at least her heart isn't broken, I hope!

I know I usually would have all the galleries up by now, but life's been hectic! I think everyone is busy as a lot of usual sleuthers have been only posting once in a while

Thanks. Looks like a nice type date.
